We are talking about uniforms, underwear and shoes, the raw materials of which were provided by Russia itself.
Some factories in North Korea have already been involved in sewing winter uniforms for the Russian military. The materials for this are supplied by Russia. This was reported by Radio Free Asia, citing information from its sources in North Korea.
At least three factories in Pyongyang and an undisclosed number elsewhere have begun sewing uniforms for the Russian military. We are talking about uniforms, underwear and shoes, the raw materials provided by Russia. They must then be sent by rail to Russia through a narrow isthmus connecting the countries – a route that “dissolved” in early November after an eight-month halt due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The veracity of this information can be proven by the statement of the Russian embassy in the DPRK a few weeks ago that Russia is “interested in buying clothes and shoes” from North Korea.
Although UN resolution 2375 of September 2017 prohibits North Korea from any export of textile products.
The interlocutor explained that such cooperation is beneficial for North Korea to receive foreign currency, especially after the forced halt due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Recall that The New York Times, citing US declassified data intelligence, reported that Russia “is desperate” to buy millions of shells and missiles from North Korea.
